Hi Kristi – Thanks for the award and the love :-) Last night I wasn’t so sure but I’m definitely going to add it and pass it along this weekend :-)

I love the Roomba Cat video. My daughter was laughing so hard when she was watching it. (I can entertain her for hours with YouTube cat videos).

Thanks Kristi for the great honor you have bestowed upon this humbled blogger. Damn, I really wanted to watch the “roomba cat video’ but it is no longer available.

@Johnny: I haven’t put any of my really dark writing on this blog. I’m thinking about a separate blog with a different theme for those pieces.

@Ari, Evita, Kim, Jaffer, Sire, and Morgan: I love your blogs, so you are all very welcome! :)

@Mike: Freaky, but funny. :)

@Aldhis: Thanks! I was pleasantly surprised.

@Irtiza: Glad to hear it. I posted my seven things.

@Madhur: Thanks.

@Debbie: You’re welcome. With exception to holidays, I plan on doing something similar every Thursday.
